I don't seem to recall sections in the Elminster novels detailing his sexual activities. Anyway, we get the point. After completely misinterpreting the Realms, you've decided you don't like it. You think the Realms shown in this preview would be much better. Well, as an existing fan of the Realms, I disagree.  I don't think alienating a large portion of the fanbase is a good way to bring about a new edition. That fanbase is probably going to be the most useful tool in bringing in new players, and if a large portion of them is still playing in the Realms set in 1375 DR, or even earlier, then that's a problem for WoTC when they push a new edition. Perhaps we can keep the discussion to the 4th Edition Realms, as opposed to misinterpretations of Elminster?Spoiler. Both Khelben Arunsun Blackstaff and Halaster Blackcloak died in recent Forgotten Realms novels (Blackstaff) and Adventures (Expedition to Undermountain) So it's unlikely you'll get to kill them again! </blockquote>
